Jeju is sunny… SK training started

[앵커]

Professional baseball SK Wyverns is the only 10 clubs to hold a spring camp in Jeju Island.

I will connect the reporters who are on the scene and feel the atmosphere of the training.

Reporter Lee Dae-ho.

Yes, I am now at the Gangchanghak Baseball Stadium in Seogwipo City, Jeju.

Yesterday, the first day of training, I just relaxed indoors because of the rain, and today I can see the sunny sky.

SK has chosen Seogwipo, the warmest weather in Korea, as a training site.

Due to the cold wave today, the temperature in Seoul has dropped close to -10 degrees Celsius, and this is the perfect weather for moving around 10 degrees Celsius.

In fact, there were many concerns that there would be difficulties in training because of the strong wind in Jeju Island rather than the temperature.

The Kang Chang Hak Baseball Stadium was built by digging the bottom of the cliff like a punch ball to prevent the wind, so it is said that there is no big obstacle to training.

This year, in the aftermath of Corona 19, all professional baseball teams are playing spring camps in Korea.

It has been 13 years since the newly founded Heroes in February 2008 that a camp was set up in Jeju Island.

SK plans to build up on Jeju Island until March 5th, and from mid-March to visit local teams such as Samsung and Lotte for practice matches.

The club was sold to Shinsegae, and how is the atmosphere of the players?

[기자]

Yes, contrary to what I was worried about, the athletes are focusing on training without much agitation.

The news of the sale of the club, which they had never thought of at all, said that SK players were quite surprised.

It is a pity to break up with SK, which has a history of 21 years, but now, expectations for a new club are growing.

In fact, on the first day of training yesterday, officials from Shinsegae Group visited the camp and promised reliable support.

Instead, Shinsegae is gradually erasing SK’s color.

Originally, the color that symbolizes SK is red, but at the request of Shinsegae during the interview yesterday, a gray and black’Incheon’ backdrop appeared.

The official club name, new CI, and uniform will not be released until the beginning of next month.

So far, I’ve delivered it from Seogwipo.
